Psoriasis: The early symptoms of psoriasis can show up in a person in any age, from the infant years to the senior citizen years. But there are certain periods in a person’s life when it’s more common to see the first signs of psoriasis: between 15 and 30 years of age and between 50 and 60 years of age. About 75% of people with psoriasis get their first psoriasis symptom before they become 40 years old.
